开云体育Hi placific, ? Yeah, the plan is to replace the sounds with other synths. I like the QY70 for getting song ideas down quickly, and in an actual song format. These are just demos that I want to get firmed up for a band recording next year. ? ? ? From: YamahaQY70AndQY100@groups.io <YamahaQY70AndQY100@groups.io>

开云体育I’ve just found them, thanks Eric. I spotted the readme file says they work up to Win7. I’ll see how I get on with Win 10. ? Regards Andy ? From: YamahaQY70AndQY100@groups.io <YamahaQY70AndQY100@groups.io>

There is also a QY70 DataFiler program...see files section.

Almost certainly same holds for QY70.

The "Data Filers" for those boxes work if the QY* is in "tone generator mode" (i.e. Ext Sync off, Local off). ;) On 05/02/20 00:52, Eric wrote:

开云体育Evening all, I appreciate that I'm replying to my own message from 14 months
ago. :) Since then I've abandoned Windoze (unless I'm getting paid to use it) and moved over to Linux. In case it's useful to anyone, I just wanted to confirm that the QYFiler works fine in MX Linux 19.3 (using WINE). I've been able to back up and restore ALL and individual songs. I've not tried Patterns yet, that's next on my playlist. See screenshot. Regards,

seem to recall that the pattern files are *.sty style files,? - or *Q1P?
can't remember if these open in CasmEdit style editor -something i checked out a long time ago- ... where style files are concatenated MIDI files, with separators between sections? the SM card on the QY100 does not let you import/export *.mid files directly, but the DataFiler does, -i think?- |
Can just confirm that the QY Filer works nicely under Ubuntu 20.04 + KXStudio. Songs, patterns (i.e. "Styles" in QYspeak), plain MIDI files. this indeed holds for several pieces of "for Windows only" software, either run nucley under WINE (e.g. the (in)famous SoundTower editor for Kurzweil boards) or are Java stuff, that is natively non-windows specific (e.g. Studiologic Sledge filer). No need on my side for a SM card. |
开云体育The only thing I've not managed to get running on MX is the SoundTower Wavestation Editor. I'll try it again now I know the QY one works. I may well have done something wrong setting it up. Andy On 25/02/2021 07:27, prea wrote:
